SEATTLE - 500 "plungers" took to the water off Golden Gardens to help raise $100,000 for the Special Olympics. It takes $650 to support a Special Olympian for a year, so $100,000 goes a long way. Onlookers also got to catch a rare glimpse of Sheriff John Urquhart in Burmuda shorts, along with Seahawks' Blue Thunder literally "playing" in Puget Sound. (KOMO Photos: Stephen Ramaley)
